Anand Jain 1cec3f2716 btrfs: scrub: fix circular locking dependency warning
This fixes a longstanding lockdep warning triggered by
fstests/btrfs/011.

Circular locking dependency check reports warning[1], that's because the
btrfs_scrub_dev() calls the stack #0 below with, the fs_info::scrub_lock
held. The test case leading to this warning:

  $ mkfs.btrfs -f /dev/sdb
  $ mount /dev/sdb /btrfs
  $ btrfs scrub start -B /btrfs

In fact we have fs_info::scrub_workers_refcnt to track if the init and destroy
of the scrub workers are needed. So once we have incremented and decremented
the fs_info::scrub_workers_refcnt value in the thread, its ok to drop the
scrub_lock, and then actually do the btrfs_destroy_workqueue() part. So this
patch drops the scrub_lock before calling btrfs_destroy_workqueue().

Backporting to older kernels: scrub_nocow_workers must be freed the same
way as the others.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
